Of all the driving forces behind an authentic spiritual practice, none is more important than the willingness to go deeper. Rather than meaning that we need to move anywhere, going deeper means that we must continually surrender to the source of our impulse to move. We must constantly face what is arising, in other words, without flinching, and then from this non-avoidance, we deepen and broaden our expanse. From this expanse we spontaneously get beyond those mind states and behaviors that will always prevent us from realization.

  2. It seems that the podcast file did not make it all the way to the server. I might need to be re-uploaded.

  4. Hello Michael, I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news but now that the file is up there it seems to be truncated. Only a bit over two minutes long.
